Practical Life

Daily living exercises are the core of the Montessori philosophy. Practical life activities help the coordination of fine motor skills. They also foster the development of concentration and inner discipline whereby the complete cycle of an activity has a beginning, middle and end with a control of error in place.

Sensorial

Montessori Sensorial Materials help develop perceptual abilities, visual and auditory discrimination in the child. They enable students to compare and classify information. The Sensorial apparatus are required for the written language because they help develop the children’s muscular control and prepares them for holding a pencil and writing.

Language

Our Language curriculum helps develop writing, reading, and spoken language skills, which is an integral part of the child’s need for self expression and communication. In this sensitive period of language acquisition, the emphasis is to broaden the child’s horizon in the real world and to grasp and understand real knowledge. Students will also receive an introduction to French.

Mathematics

Through the manipulation of the mathematical materials, the child is better able to understand mathematical concepts and bridge the gap between concrete and abstract concepts and increase problem-solving abilities.

Culture

The manipulation of Culture materials provides a sensorial element to the child’s understanding of the world and his or her own place in the universe.Includes the study of geography, history, science, botany and zoology.
